Dear Org-mode maintainers,
Org-mode has been fantastic. However, in the most recent release as
part of emacs 29.1, I am experiencing an inconvenience that made me
switch back to 28.3. (I learned from this page
https://irreal.org/blog/?p=10982 that emacs 29.1 released org-mode
9.6).
The issue is: let's say I have a simple org-mode file, and let's say
the cursor starts at the top of the file (marked by '|'):
|* Sec1
** SubSec1
** SubSec2
In 28.3 and before, when I do `M->`, and hit 'Enter', I get to the end
of file on a new line outside of SubSec2, like so:
* Sec1
** SubSec1
** SubSec2
|
And now I could type `** SubSec3` to add a new section like below:
* Sec1
** SubSec1
** SubSec2
** SubSec3|
But in 29.1, when I do the same sequence, the cursor is "trapped" in
SubSec2, and I had to expand SubSec2 first in order to see what I'm
typing. I don't like this behavior -- I wonder why it is this way in
the new version. How is this better? Could we revert back?
Now, you could argue that I should type in the keybinding for
inserting the subsection instead of doing this manually. But I simply
don't remember (and never tried remembering) the keybinding for adding
a new section -- I don't think I'm wrong by not remembering that
keybinding. I was able to do what I wanted before in a simple and
natural way.
I hope my concern is valid.
Best,
Kaiyu

You can try some other key that is not enter. For example, <SPC>.
'Enter' should work on main, the development branch.
I will see what can be done on stable Org version.

A similar, but not so severe change in comparison to 9.5:
In response to C-RET Org-9.5 just adds first level heading (so M-<rignt>
puts it to the same level as SubSec2, it is my usual way to append a
subheading), but Org>=9.6 adds ellipsis after cursor. When some content
is pasted from clipboard, it appears folded.
Complete example:
---- 8< ----
#+startup: content
* Sec1
** SubSec1
text
** SubSec2
text

Thanks! I saw this issue from time to time and heard reports about it.
But did not have a reproducer.
Fixed, on bugfix.

Ihor, I have tried "main" and I confirm that at the end of file behavior
has become better. Unfortunately newline is not added in the case of an
intermediate headings
|* Sec1
** SubSec1
** SubSec2
* Sec2
C-RET
* Sec1
** SubSec1
** SubSec2
* |* Sec2
